19-97 loader

[quiggs12]

I am looking for some help with a Ford 19-97 loader. I called the Ford dealer to ask about a replacement cylinder and they can't even find this model loader. The guy told me I was giving him the wrong numbers... I told him that this was EXACTLY what the tag said on the loader and got nothing. Can someone that knows about this tell me where to go and what to tell them so I can get a price on replacing and NOT fixing the cylinder. They are missing so they can't be fixed. Thanks

The 19-97 is a variation of the 703 loader. A dealer that is not familar with the older equipment would have a hard time finding that.

So what do I tell the dealer???

go to another dealer.

The parts look up will be under model 703 but the cylinders are no longer available so the best thing to do is find someone that has a 703 to give you demensions to try and match cylinders. You might also try some of the used tractor parts places for used cylinders.

diytractor has two new aftermarket lift cylinders listed for the 703 loader. I didn't see a price.
